H. Rider Haggard 
Jess [PDF ebook] 

Set in nineteenth-century South Africa during a time of conflict, deprivation and hardship, the tale Jess is something of a departure from the typical formula of H. Rider Haggard’s novels. Following the travails of a pair of sisters who are fighting to save their family’s farm, Jess is a captivating look at the brave sacrifices that so many people are called on to make in wartime.
